Answer:

$0. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

emma had $2.40 but she spent $1.40 on 7 pencils

if she bought 7 pencils and had $1.00 left

so you would do $2.40 - $1.00 because she had $1.00 left after she bought the pencils.

the answer would be $1.40 because that is how much she spent and you divide that by 7 because she bought 7 pencils.

so 140 divided by 7 = 20

but since its $ dollars you put it into cents leaving you with the answer

$)0.20

In a recent survey, 66% of the community favored building a health center in their neighborhood. Suppose 12 citizens are randoml

ipn [44]

Answer:

0.1197 = 11.97% probability that exactly 10 of the 12 individuals favor building the health center

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

66% of the community favored building a health center in their neighborhood.

This means that $p = 0.66$

12 citizens

This means that $n = 12$

What is the probability that exactly 10 of the 12 individuals favor building the health center?

This is P(X = 10).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 10) = C_{12,10}.(0.66)^{10}.(0.34)^{2} = 0.1197$

0.1197 = 11.97% probability that exactly 10 of the 12 individuals favor building the health center

What value of x will make the triangles similar by the sss similarity theorem? 15.9 59 77 96.8

deff fn [24]

The value of x which will make the provided triangles similar by the sss similarity theorem is 77.

<h3>What is SSS similarity theorem?</h3>

The SSS similarity theorem is the theorem which is used to check the two triangle are similar or not.

SSS means the side-side-side. This theorem states that if all the three sides of a triangle are proportional to the three corresponding sides of the another triangle, then the triangles are similar.

In the given image, the sides of the first triangle are 35,20 and 20. The sides of the second triangle are x, 44,44.

Thus, by the SSS similarity theorem,

$\dfrac{x}{35}=\dfrac{44}{20}\\x=\dfrac{44\times35}{20}\\x=77$

The value of x which will make the provided triangles similar by the sss similarity theorem is 77.
